So many shows either drag on too long (walking dead), or the ending was awful (GOT). This show had the right amount of seasons, and an epic ending. One of my favorite shows of all time that didn't get the recognition it deserved. Kudos to the second spartacus actor for being able to do about as good of a performance as possible. It was so hard moving on when Andy passed away, and by the end. You were really liking the new actor. Such a great series that still holds strong today. So many memorable characters in the series.
@@Liverpool-Thedirtyredteam just two carachters and one because die, i think people make too much noise about that, naevia has a downward spiral is actually one of the best if you see it.
yeah i feel like alot of people get turned off from the over the top fake blood in the first few episodes, if told all my friend's to just get through it and keep watching. all of them have thanked me on their knees after!
One of the best finale of any series! First this is a shoutout to Liam McIntyre as Spartacus. Like Manu Bennett this episode was his and he performed brilliantly throughout. The last battle was pretty great considering there budget restrictions. More emotional than grandeur of the action. The ending was sort of inevitable cause of history but they did a great job with it. Let's talk Gannicus. By far my favorite character and his ending was bittersweet. I read old reviews and many did not like his ending. Again I say it was apropos to a great warrior where it was almost impossible for him to fall in battle 1v1. Plus someone had to be crucified (a reference to history). The end of him seeing Oenomaus and dreaming of being in the arena with one last roar, was well done. Maybe you could have had him in the arena weilding his dueal swords in his fighting style of Dimachaerus. Throughout the series and episodes, Liam McIntyre just got stronger and stronger. The ending performance was well deserved. His physicallity in the final fight scene and death were brilliant. The fight between him and Crassus is well done, with Spartacus exhausted from battle yet hacks through Crassus' bodyguards and could have bested Crassus. A true champion. The death scene is emotional and well acted again. I loved when Laeta utters his name and Liam says "Spartacus..that is not my name. I shall finally hear it again, given voice by loving wife." A reference to him not choosing the name and freedom and seeing Sura. The ending credit scene with great musical score and final "curtain call" for the major characters (stole this for Wiki). Every time I watch this I immediately want to fire up the start of this series again. It just gets me. Of course we have the fitting and final tribute of Andy Whitfield yelling "I am Spartacus!". Tv trivia: At start of episode 10 you have all the characters yelling "I am Spartacus". A tribute to the 1960 film and of course tribute to Andy and the show in general. Naevia's death is that mirrored of Diona in Gods of Arena. Spartacus tells Agron he is the last gladiator of the House of Batiatus, but there were multiple characters who were shown as background. I guess they were just playing other characters and not their original gladiators. History: Spartacus did hold gladiator games honoring Crixus with captured Romans. Before the battle, Spartacus killed his horse in front of his men, claiming that if they win he will have choice of any horse he wants. Spartacus supposedly did get close to Crassus but was hacked down by his bodyguards, sorta mirroring the episode. Yet Spartacus body was never recovered. Around 6,000 slave were crucified along the Appian Way, a road that led from Capua to Rome. This was a great journey and I want to watch the whole reaction on Patreon. I had a blast! I AM SPARTACUS!
You really the GOAT 🐐 for writing this😂 but seriously I agree with this especially the part where you said makes me wanna fire it up again same that’s why I’ve watched this show so many times since I was a kid and still to this day😂 but like I said you a real one and this show is definitely fantastic.
I also thought Gannicus’ death was bittersweet. The one man who for the longest time disavowed Spartacus’ rebellion against the Romans, becoming the only one of Spartacus’ generals to die symbolically on the cross in its name. His final scene being spiritually reunited with Oenomaus and the arena, roaring in ecstasy, I’d like to think this represented his passing into the afterlife. Gratitude for the excellent post 👍
Spartacus cutting down Crassus' bodyguard/centurions does have a basis in some of the historical records, as do some of the the absolutely batshit "sounds made up for Hollywood" moments: the slaves melting down their fetters for swords, using the frozen dead to help fill in a bridge for the gladiator army to escape, Roman prisoners forced to fight for Crixus' funeral... it's just an incredible story.
The final battle was probably a bit of Hollywood. Sure, there may have been around 32,000 Roman troos, but there were more than the maybe thousand rebels that were shown.
a bitter sweet day for this to be the final spartacus reaction from you. RIP Spartacus King of the Gladiators and Goddammit RIP Gannicus the True God of The Arena. Two goat characters that were the final to fall.
4:47-5:04 LOL. What I find almost comical about Tiberius's death is the look of bewilderment on his face. Like he's thinking to himself "THIS is how I die?". Great scene between Spartacus and Crassus when they meet. The understanding and grudging respect they shared. It reminds me of a similar scene from the movie Heat. RIP Spartacus. You lived your dream. You owned the stage. Gave it 110%.
A great thing to remember is that Spartacus was just expected to be a slave. The romans didn't expect him to make the largest slave rebellion they ever had. Yeah it was a downer, but it had hope at the end. Also we still remember Spartacus today. Also It's good to remember Spartacus is basically a dead man walking. He died when his wife died in his arms. That's why he seems to invite death around him.
1:56 😐😥😥 So glad that you finished the show. Not enough people give it a chance or drop off after the first couple slow episodes, but then it goes wild.
I think the biggest problem with this show is poor pacing. Either too slow, or too fast. The very first episode was actually visually one of the worst in the entire series. The blood was over the top, too much sex and nudity, poor green screen. The second episode was already a lot better, but kinda slow. episode 3 was a little better, but only at episode 4 is when the pace gets better and drags less. That's the first season. The second (prequel) season in my opinion dragged for too long. Even if it's only 6 episodes, they felt really boring at times. Season 3 (vengeance) was in my own opinion the most boring of the 4 seasons. It dragged out for way longer than it needed to be. I even had my hand on my cheek from boredom (that classic pose) while watching episode 7 of vengeance. Season 4 was the exact opposite. To me it was the best season along with 1, but the pacing again was what bothered me. Season 4 rushed instead of dragged. It felt like there was so much more to show and tell. Mabey 3 more episodes, or split season 4 into 2 seasons of 7 episodes and you got yourself a finale that wasn't rushed. Like crixus departure and battles+defeat, the crucifixions were also totally rushed. (in reality, the crucifixions probably too an entire day, possibly several. Pompey killed the remaining rebels who tried to flee after the final battle (not even showed in the series at all). In reality, there was a second split from spartacus army. Crixus split first and was killed, then Gannicus and a German named Castus split in their final winter and were killed as well.
....really reegret to not see Spartacus great actors male & female again working today more in series and movies..even a few have some small apparitions time to time,but never with such monster characters of this show.. Thanks from France Jimmy to react to the entiere saison !👍
Just pointing back to the comments when you first started and a fair few of us said "give it about 5 episodes - once it gets to a certain plot development, it constantly improves with every episode". Glad you enjoyed it. I wish more people knew.
A fantastic finale to the series, albeit a bitter sweet one. Tiberius' death was a welcome relief. Both Crassus and Caesar would go on to form the Triumverate with Pompey; each meeting their respective ends. As Jimmy said, this version of Caesar is unlike the one that is portrayed in his later years. The impulsive Caesar that we see was subsequently tempered, as he matured into the calculating and tactical Caesar of the late Republican era. No doubt he learned a lot from Crassus himself. The ending was truly a double whammy. As Gannicus is crucified, he remembers Oenomaus and his days of glory in the arena. He knows that it's all over, yet with one last dying breath manages to give a triumphant roar. "I'm Gannicus, god of the arena !" The irony is evident because, back in season 2, he declared to Lucretia that he was "no martyr upon cross". Ultimately, he chooses to sacrifice himself so that others may live. Cut to a dying Spartacus, who says "Do not shed tear. There is no greater victory than to fall from this world a free man." Agron states that one day Roman would crumble but Spartacus' name would be remembered forever. 😢 Makes me cry every time. Thank you Steven DeKnight and all who made one of the most entertaining and heartfelt shows ever.
Man, Lugo gets the best death in the entire show. Continuing to fight ON FIRE, with Roman blood on his hammer and a curse of defiance on his lips. My favourite character, without a doubt!
Every character on this show was given a spectacular death except for Tiberius. I like to think it's because he was so awful he didn't even deserve an enjoyable gory death scene. Thank you so much for reacting to this show.
In the pilot episode, Spartacus' wife tells him her vision where she sees him kneeling before a red serpent which plays out in season 1 but again here with Agron's red serpent shield marking his grave. It was a nice touch. It felt right for Spartacus to die in battle. Gannicus should've had a better death tho, IMO. Historically Crassus crucified any slave connected to Spartacus but they could've chose some other known face than Gannicus to do that with. (Real Gannicus died in battle.) Oh, Kore. Poor dumb girl. She forget that she was ultimately just a slave and that Crassus is a Roman shit who values power over people. Like with "Black Sails", I see this as a bittersweet ending. Some of the people we cared about made it out alive. Although you might trade that to see a successful slave rebellion but history was not on their side.
Best final 3 episodes of any series, period! I remember standing up on my couch watching the Spartacus and Crassus fight - when my boy Spartacus grabbed the sword 🔥🔥🔥🔥 The speech he gave at the end of episode 9!!!! It was all tv gold. The beginning of the battle was so good. You love Liam as the new Spart by the end, the passion and bad assery was next level
Glad to see someone else say this! Every time I talk about the ending of this show, I have to point out how the final 3 episodes are just the absolute peak. It's such an awesome achievement for a series to go out at its height, in a world where far too many series drag on for too long then fizzle out.
I’ve been your patron for 4 years and I think it’s my longest relationship yet 🤣💖 just wanted to say thank you for always keeping me entertained on good days and bad. Also, I can’t thank you enough for not making me have my own copy of whatever it is you’re watching just to follow along with your full length reactions! You’re the best Sir Macram 🌹
Jimmy, other than sending you money, the best I can do to let you know how much I appreciate your reactions is to say, Well done good man, well done. I am thoroughly entertained.
Thanks for sharing your journey through this series with us jimmy!! Also let’s see if this hurts as much as it does a ton of others. After they finished War of The Damned there WAS talks of continuing on the story but instead of it being focused on Spartacus since he’s dead, following history and continuing with the Roman’s perspective and centering the story around the triumvirate of Pompey Caesar & Crassus using the same actors as they did this season. It didn’t pan out but can you imagine if we’d gotten THAT story? You’d get more MC and probably would’ve gotten to see exactly how he helped shape Caesar in the one we think of to this day.
Fantastic series Jimmy! Knowing(being pretty sure) how you'd feel about most of the characters at the end made it fun to see your opinion on some change throughout. lol Spartacus is an all time favorite for me, I rewatch yearly. *Props to the editor **Consider Black Sails
This finale gets me so emotional and tears me to bits knowing its real history and as soon as Lego catches fire.... The tears start rolling omg my Marcia what a warrior queen as well as Saxa!!! Gannacis crucified wow what an ending My babes Argon and Nadir are the only couple to make it! Love that for them!!!
I just want to say I wish you would have watched the credits because it's a love letter to the whole series especially the last scene I don't want to spoil it but I definitely think you should check it out
I truly think this is the only show I've experienced that I wish I could erase from my memory,just so I could experience it with fresh eyes one more time. I truly do think this shows ending is far Superior to Game of Thrones. In some ways I'm glad it didn't run on longer than necessary to tell the story,but I can't think of another show outside of DBZ/DCAU series that i would give anything to experience more adventures with. Manu Bennett is so criminally underrated in his role as Crixus and it was amazing to watch this first,and then see him as Deathstroke on the Arrowverse. Crassus and Julius Caesar are honestly amazing and fit exactly into the type of villians that would fit into a Series like Game of Thrones. Men motivated by both Loyalty to their homeland,their individual families,but their own personal Ambitions are cloaked behind the Veil of Politics. Lucy Lawless might be known to most people as Xena Warrior Princess but I will always remember her as possibly the only women who could rival the Likes of Cersei Lannister and Margarey/Olenna Tyrell in cunning,Deception,and Beauty. Lucretia and Quintus Batiatus would rival Tywin Lannister in Ambition,Deception,and the willingness to do anything to see one's family rise to the top of the world.
I love how you still rooted for Caesar even while he was being a bitch lol. Yea Caesar had no real reason to try to win a 1v1 with gannicus when he can just throw dozens or hundreds of men at him until he gets tired out. At least he doesn't instantly get killed like most other people that challenged him.
Even though they had a small budget for the finale- they did a better job with it than Game of thrones did with 15 million. Yes it didn't look that great...not even close to GoT, but they still made the episode satisfying and at the end I felt like it was all worth it. Also...Liam McIntyre has grown on me so much. I see Spartacus when I look at him. He has a great angry face and he has a powerful voice for great speeches. It makes sense that people follow him.
Good Reactions :^). __ I wasn't feeling the first part of Season 1 either. I had to rewatch the start twice before I powered through it to go on and watch the rest.
This was one of the best tv shows ever made, especially that it was historically accurate. The sad thing is, if you study the history, you that: Agron's party who fled after burying Spartacus were all captured and slaughtered by General Pompey.
If I can suggest then just watch the two seasons of Rome (the HBO series) as you can follow what happens with Caesar a few decades later. It is also a great show and it can be considered as a continuation of the Spartacus.
@@JimmyMacram But hey we all entitled to believe whatever we want so I believe Spartacus has four seasons if you believe it has three then hey do you all I can say Is as long as you like this show which you do that’s all I care about honestly.💯

The moment where Spartacus is running to Crassus when he thinks he's safe is one of the most hype and probably one of the best moments of the show.

Yea Caesar had no real reason to try to win a 1v1 with gannicus when he can just throw dozens or hundreds of men at him until he gets tired out. At least he doesn't instantly get killed like most other people that challenged him.
Even though they had a small budget for the finale- they did a better job with it than Game of thrones did with 15 million. Yes it didn't look that great...not even close to GoT, but they still made the episode satisfying and at the end I felt like it was all worth it.
Also...Liam McIntyre has grown on me so much. I see Spartacus when I look at him. He has a great angry face and he has a powerful voice for great speeches. It makes sense that people follow him.
The last kingdom should be next, season 5 is coming out next month
Didn’t top Joffrey’s death though did it? The greatest moment in television history”
Knight fall is a great TV show
how could you not show the ending shot of andy whitfield as spartacus
Good Reactions :^). __ I wasn't feeling the first part of Season 1 either. I had to rewatch the start twice before I powered through it to go on and watch the rest.
This was one of the best tv shows ever made, especially that it was historically accurate. The sad thing is, if you study the history, you that: Agron's party who fled after burying Spartacus were all captured and slaughtered by General Pompey.
Please watch Sharpe next
If I can suggest then just watch the two seasons of Rome (the HBO series) as you can follow what happens with Caesar a few decades later. It is also a great show and it can be considered as a continuation of the Spartacus.
It’s on the channel
They didn’t win but they didn’t lose either .
Nah they definitely lost. They put up a fight for sure though
@Jimmy Macram too bad you didnt play the end credits ... there was a great tribute to the late Andy Whitfield.
said the same thing
It was Gannicus for me 😔
although i prefer HBO rome over this, they both are great and you can watch them back to back chronologically as well if u wanna
wtf you didnt post the best part the end credits. I cry every time I see it.
I think you might of labeled it wrong this is season four not three😂
I didn’t count the prequel
@@JimmyMacram oh got you and why you didn’t count it? It’s still a season.
@@JimmyMacram But hey we all entitled to believe whatever we want so I believe Spartacus has four seasons if you believe it has three then hey do you all I can say Is as long as you like this show which you do that’s all I care about honestly.💯
Give the movie Apocolypto a watch, you won’t regret it
